I first tried to uninstall the older version (3.3). I read and followed the uninstall instructions.

BUT... I can't delete the old spyware blaster exe file from the spyware folder.
I get an access denied message when I try. I've cleaned the registry of all spyware blaster entrys, removed the read only attribute etc..

After your computer is back at your desktop, shut down Antivirus & Firewall again to run Spywareblaster 3.4 setup. Reboot again!

You should be good to go now.

Post back if you have any more problems or questions. Also, post back if this resolved your predicament so other users can benefit.

You're right.
I did read and follow the instructions...BUT...
When I installed Spyware Blaster I set it to run at startup, so while I thought I had stopped it from running I really had not, hence it would no uninstall.

When I "remembered" that I had done that and actually turned it off...no problem it uninstalled and the upgade went smooth.
